NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization Information

Community and Family Services International (CFSI or the Organization) is a nonstock, nonprofit,humanitarian organization, committed to peace and social development, with a particular interestin the psychosocial dimension. The Organization was established in the Philippines in 1981 and was incorporated in 1982.

The registered office address of CFSI is Torres Building, 2442 Park Avenue, Pasay City.

The mission of CFSI is to vigorously protect and promote human security - specifically, the lives,well-being, and dignity of people uprooted by persecution, armed conflict, disasters, and other

exceptionally difficult circumstances. These include refugees, internally displaced persons (IDPs),disaster survivors, and others who are vulnerable, exploited or abused.

CFSI carries out its mission through direct services, capacity building, research, and advocacy.Most of these activities are carried out in the Asia and Pacific Region, particularly those countriesthat comprise the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN).

CFSI has “Special Consultative Status” with the United Nations Economic and Social Council(ECOSOC). This status was first achieved in 2004.

CFSI is accredited by the Philippine Council for NGO Certification (PCNC) through February 4,2013 and has “Donee Institution” status with the Philippine Government’s Bureau of Internal

Revenue through September 2013, in accordance with the provisions of Revenue Regulations No. 13-98, dated January 1, 1999 and Executive Order No. 720, dated April 11, 2008.

CFSI, as a not-for-profit organization operating exclusively for the promotion of social welfare,falls under Section 30 (e) of the National Internal Revenue Code, as amended by RepublicAct (RA) No. 8424, where income from activities in pursuit of the purpose for which CFSI wasorganized, is exempt from income tax. However, any income on its properties, real or personal, or from any activity conducted for profit is subject to income tax.

CFSI is governed by a Board of Trustees (BOT). Its operations are funded primarily by theUnited Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the World Bank. Other major fund sources include other United Nations (UN) agencies and various governments, usuallythrough their development assistance agencies.

The private sector in the Philippines, as well as abroad, also contributes significant resources toCFSI, in cash and/or in kind. These donors include a variety of private foundations, corporations,groups, and individuals. Academic institutions in various parts of the world provide CFSI with in-kind support, mainly human resources and technical assistance.

The different funds of CFSI are organized under four major groupings: Philippine Programme,Myanmar Programme, Viet Nam Programme, and Headquarters Programme.



- 2 -

Philippine ProgrammeThe Philippine Programme includes funds for humanitarian and development activities carried outin the Philippines, usually in the social welfare, education, and health arenas, often with a focus onlocal capacity building. The primary sources of these funds are international organizations,development assistance agencies, and the private sector.

For the year-ended December 31, 2011, CFSI received P=100,537,476 for the PhilippineProgramme, broken down as follows:

Nationwide Operations P=11,838,013Mindanao Operations 75,847,744Luzon Operations 2,573,917Private Sector Funds – All Operations 10,277,802

Total P=100,537,476

Funds for Projects with Nationwide Coverage. In 1981, the Philippines ratified the 1951Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees - the first country in Asia to do so and, for manyyears, the only one. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) has theglobal mandate to protect and assist refugees. CFSI has been a partner of UNHCR in thePhilippines every year since 1982.

a. Philippines United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) Fund – UrbanRefugee Project (URP) - represents funds received from the UNHCR for urban refugees frommore than 16 countries who are granted asylum in the Philippines. CFSI is responsible for helping these refugees achieve durable solutions, as well as providing them with legalassistance, social services, psychosocial services, and access to health services, including

where necessary, tertiary care. For many of the refugees, the most likely durable solution islocal integration in the Philippines, ideally leading to naturalization. CFSI has entered intoannual project agreements with UNHCR for this purpose since 1997 and is expected tocontinue to do so through at least December 2013.

b. Philippines United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) Fund – EmergencyTransit Mechanism (ETM) Project - represents funds received from the UNHCR to protectand assist refugees in transit, under special circumstances, to other countries, usually withinsix months. CFSI is responsible for providing the refugees with safe accommodation, basicservices, legal assistance, social services, psychosocial services, and access to health services,including tertiary care. The overall aim of this project is to facilitate the effective and timelyresettlement of the refugees. This project, contracted annually, began in 2009 and is

expanding. It is presently expected to continue through at least December 2013.

In January 2011, the Urban Refugee Project and the Emergency Transit Mechanism werecombined to form just one project, thereby promoting greater operational efficiencies.

The UNHCR-approved combined budget of the Urban Refugee Project and the EmergencyTransit Mechanism for 2011 was P=11,838,013, to be released to CFSI in four installments.However, the last installment of P=2,367,277 was not received by CFSI until January 9, 2012.Of this amount, P=81,701 could not be disbursed by CFSI within the allowed timeframe. Thisamount will be returned to UNHCR in April 2012, after UNHCR verifies the final financialreport for 2011 submitted by CFSI and the UNHCR’s auditing processes are completed.

Funds for Projects in Mindanao. Recurrent armed conflict displaced more than 930,000 personsin Mindanao in 2000, 440,000 persons in 2003, and 745,000 in 2008. CFSI began its response tothis complex humanitarian emergency in mid-2000 and has committed to remain engaged inMindanao through at least 2019. The primary fund sources are international organizations,development assistance agencies, and the private sector.

The objectives of the grants to the fund are: (1) strengthen the capacity of communities and local partners,

particularly the Bangsamoro Development Agency (BDA), to enable them to promoteinclusive and effective governance processes in the economic and social recovery in theconflict-affected areas of Mindanao; and (2) undertake sub-project activities in priority

barangays and municipalities as part of capacity building through “learning by doing.” CFSI’sresponsibilities as Trust Fund Recipient include financial management, supporting programmemanagement, providing capacity building services, providing operational support, and generally facilitating the implementation of approved sub-projects.

b. Mindanao World Food Programme (WFP) Fund - represents funds received from the WFP, aspecialized agency of the United Nations, to provide food assistance to specific populationstotaling roughly 535,000 persons in the provinces of Maguindanao, Lanao del Norte and Lanao del Sur in the conflict-affected areas of Mindanao. The project has two objectives:(1) support the on-going peace process; and (2) address the immediate food security needs of the conflict-affected population. Parties to the project agreement include the WFP, CFSI, thePhilippine Government’s Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) - whichserves as the national Executing Agency - and the Bangsamoro Development Agency (BDA) -the development arm of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF). As Cooperating Partner,CFSI is responsible for the receipt, storage and handling of food commodities at mutuallyagreed upon delivery points, as well as the distribution of these commodities to the intended

beneficiaries. The Emergency Operations started in June 2006 and continues with theProtracted Relief and Recovery Operation (PRRO) through at least April 2012. CFSI and WFP are currently negotiating a new Agreement that will extend the implementation of a new

PRRO through at least April 2014.

In addition, in late December 2011, CFSI and WFP agreed to expand its cooperation toinclude areas in Northern Mindanao affected by the flood disaster associated with TropicalStorm Sendong (International name: Washi). The tropical storm affected 1,100,000 persons inthe urban centers of Cagayan de Oro City and Iligan City as well as the provinces of Lanao delSur, Misamis Oriental and Bukidnon. CFSI provides food assistance to affected personsthrough Food-for-Work, Emergency School Feeding and Supplemental Feeding. Theresponse to this disaster is expected to last through at least April 2012, with ongoingdiscussions to extend it through June 2012.

c. Mindanao United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) - represents funds received from

UNICEF for the implementation of the “Second Round of the Days of Peace Campaign inMindanao” project in the provinces of Maguindanao and Shariff Kabunsuan (nowMaguindanao). The project—which set the stage for many to follow—started in November 2008 and was completed in February 2009. The objectives of the project were to: (1) provideemergency psychosocial support for at least 5,000 displaced children by establishing 20 child-friendly spaces (CFS) and 20 temporary classrooms (TLS) or alternative learning spaces(ALS) in evacuation centers; (2) actively engage the youth amongst the displaced in

psychosocial activities; and (3) provide support to caregivers through trainings and groupsessions.

A second project, entitled, “Building a Safe and Secure Environment and Providing Access toBasic Education for Children Displaced by Armed Conflict in Mindanao,” known at CFSI as

the “Child Rights Project” (CRP) was started in September 2009 in evacuation centers ineleven municipalities of Maguindanao province and one municipality in North Cotabato

province. It includes the development and implementation of culturally inclusive activitiesthat focus on the psychosocial well-being of children and youth, and build emotionalintelligence among children experiencing profound stress. It also includes enhancing familyand community capacities to protect child rights and to maintain temporary facilities thataddress psychosocial needs and promote recovery. The project was completed inFebruary 2011.

Recognizing the need to provide a protective environment for children, specifically thoseaffected by the floods in Cotabato City from June to July 2011, UNICEF supported the project“Ensuring Child Protection in the Flooding Emergency in Cotabato City and Maguindanao’

from July to September 2011. CFSI, as the implementing partner, worked closely with other members of the Child Protection Working Group (CPWG). The CPWG, composed of various



- 5 -

local NGOs based in Central Mindanao, with DSWD as the lead, and UNICEF as co-lead, wasestablished to address responses to emergencies. Through activities conducted in evacuationcenters, approximately 5,000 children were reached directly and indirectly.

A continuation of Child Rights Project, entitled, “Ensuring Sustainability of Child ProtectionInterventions in the Early Recovery of Children Affected by Armed Conflict in CentralMindanao,” also known as CRP2, was started in July 2011. CRP2 was undertaken primarilyto facilitate the reactivation or establishment of the Barangay Council for the Protection of Children (BCPC) in 46 barangays covered by the previous project. CRP2 also contributed tothe implementation of the early recovery plans of the local government units of Maguindanao,Lanao del Norte and Lanao del Sur. Also, the constructed CFSs and TLSs were turned over togovernment line agencies such as the Department of Welfare and Social Development(DSWD), Department of Education (DepEd), and/or the barangay local government unit. The

project was completed in December 2011.

Another Child Rights Project component was formulated and negotiated in October 2011, butnot signed into an agreement with UNICEF until early January 2012. This component isknown as the “Development of a School-based Disaster Risk Reduction, Preparedness and Education in Emergencies System” or DRAPEES. The project aims to increase resiliency of the educational system and ensure children will have continuous access to basic educationespecially in times of emergencies through the provision of a package of services that include(a) capacity enhancement on disaster risk reduction management (DRRM) and education inemergencies (EiE); (b) setting up transitional learning spaces (TLS); (c) construction of water and sanitation hygiene (WASH) facilities; (d) repair of damaged school classrooms; and,(e) prepositioning and distribution of learning supplies and materials for schools, teachers, and

pupils. This project component started in January 2012 and is expected to be completed by

July 2012.

In response to the flood disaster in Northern Mindanao in late 2011, CFSI entered into acooperation agreement with UNICEF for the “Child Protection in Emergencies Project” or CPEP which aims to establish child-friendly spaces and provide psychosocial interventions tochildren in evacuation centers and/or places of return and resettlement. The project isexpected to run through at least May 2012.

g. Mindanao United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) Fund - MindanaoProtection Project (MPP) - represents funds received from UNHCR, to address immediate

protection needs and/or facilitate the rapid integration and rehabilitation of internallydisplaced persons (IDPs) and returnees in Central and Northern Mindanao through the

implementation of Quick Impact Projects (QIPs). Most of the QIPs are small scale and include livelihood-related initiatives that provide small injections of material, financial and technical assistance. The community-led QIPs and the development of people’s organizations(POs) also allow for the inclusion of IDPs with special needs. The project started in July 2010and is expected to continue through at least December 2012.

In response to the flood disaster in late December 2011, CFSI and UNHCR agreed to expand their cooperation to include the disaster-affected areas of Northern Mindanao. In this context,CFSI distributed non-food items to IDPs such as tents, tarps, kitchen utensils and FamilySupport Kits (FSKs) that contain essential hygiene items. CFSI also distributed wheelchairs,walking canes, eyeglasses and medicines to persons with special needs. This project alsoincludes provision for Quick Impact Projects (QIPs) to be carried out by CFSI and its local

NGO partners in 2012. This disaster response project is currently expected to continuethrough at least July 2012.

h. Mindanao Philippine Institute for Development Studies (PIDS) Fund – represents funds fromthe Philippine Institute for Philippine Studies for the Country Study on Out-of-SchoolChildren (OOSC) in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) conducted fromJune through August 2011.

secondary education in the Philippines.

i. Mindanao Australian Aid (AusAID) Fund – Psychosocial Care Project (PCP) – representsfunds received from AusAID, to respond to the disaster in Northern Mindanao caused byTropical Storm Sendong (International name: Washi) through (a) the provision of

psychosocial support to survivors and train local caregivers; (b) ensuring the active participation of survivors and extremely vulnerable groups in planning and carrying outrecovery, return, relocation and resettlement activities; and (c) enhancing disaster mitigationand risk reduction capacities in at-risk communities. The project is envisaged to reach at least10,000 affected persons in twelve evacuation centers and/or sites of return/relocation inCagayan de Oro, Iligan City and other affected environs in Northern Mindanao. The projectstarted in late December 2011 and is expected to continue through at least June 2012.

However, the funds for this project—totaling P=11,032,500—were subsequently received byCFSI on January 2, 2012.

j. In late 2011, CFSI and Stichting Brac International began discussing the possibility of partnership for the implementation of the “Alternative Delivery Model (ADM) Project” of theBasic Education Assistance for Mindanao in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao(BEAM-ARMM) Program in selected municipalities and provinces of Autonomous Region inMuslim Mindanao (ARMM). This project is supported with funds by the Australian Agencyfor International Development (AusAID). The project is designed to enable communitieswithout access to education to establish preschools and elementary schools utilizing BRAC’smodel of Alternative Delivery Mechanism. CFSI will be responsible for operations in the

provinces of Maguindanao and Lanao del Sur. The first phase of this partnership is expected

to cover April 2012 through June 2015, and is valued at roughly P=70,753,304.

Funds for Projects in Luzon. Three tropical storms caused widespread devastation in Luzon between late September and early October 2009, directly affecting 9,400,000 persons and forciblydisplacing more than 700,000 persons. CFSI quickly launched a disaster response operationfollowed by early recovery efforts extending through January 2011. The primary fund sourceswere international organizations, development assistance agencies, and the private sector.

a. Luzon World Food Programme (WFP) Fund - Food Assistance Project - represents fundsreceived from WFP, a specialized agency of the United Nations that were utilized to conduct arapid needs assessment and help provide food assistance through general food distribution(GFD) and food-for-work (FFW) to roughly 480,000 families affected by disaster in at least

seven provinces, namely: Aurora, Bulacan, Nueva Ecija, Bataan, Pampanga, Tarlac and Zambales. The project started in October 2009 and ended in December 2010.

Another project, the Cash-for-Work (CFW) Pilot Project, was started in August 2010 tosupport early recovery through the implementation of short-term community rehabilitation

projects related to four categories: environment and agriculture, infrastructure, shelter, and training. Cash incentives were given to the 50,000 households who participated in thecommunity projects. The CFW Project was implemented in 42 municipalities in Region IV-A(Rizal and Laguna), National Capital Region, and Cordillera Administrative Region (Benguetand Mountain Province). The project ended in late January 2011.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of PreparationThe financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis. The financial statementsare presented in Philippine Peso, the Organization’s functional currency. All amounts are rounded to the nearest peso.

Statement of ComplianceThe financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Philippine Financial ReportingStandards for Small and Medium-sized Entities (PFRS for SMEs).

CashCash includes cash on hand and in banks.

Property and EquipmentProperty and equipment, except for land, are carried at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Land is stated at cost less impairment in value, if any.

The initial cost of property and equipment consists of its purchase price and any directlyattributable cost of bringing the property and equipment to its working condition and location for its intended use. Expenditures incurred after the property and equipment have been put intooperation, such as repairs and maintenance, are normally charged against income in the year suchcosts are incurred. In situations where it can be clearly demonstrated that the expenditures haveresulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of anitem of property and equipment beyond its originally assessed standard of performance, theexpenditures are capitalized as additional costs of property and equipment.

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful livesof the property and equipment:

Asset Type Number of Years

Buildings and improvements 20Transportation equipment 5Furniture and fixtures 5Communication equipment 5Office and other equipment 5

The useful lives and depreciation method of the property and equipment are reviewed, and

adjusted prospectively if appropriate, if there is an indication of a significant change since the lastreporting date.

Fully depreciated assets are retained in the accounts until they are no longer in use and no further depreciation is charged to current operations.

Construction in progress is stated at cost less any recognized impairment loss. This includes thecosts of construction and other direct costs. Construction in progress is not depreciated until suchtime that the relevant assets are completed and put into operations.

When assets are sold or retired, the cost and the related accumulated depreciation and anyimpairment in value are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss resulting from their

disposal is credited to or charged against the statement of revenues and expenses.



- 17 -

Computer SoftwareComputer software is carried at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment in value.The computer software is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of threeyears.

Computer software is classified as an intangible asset if the software is not an integral part of therelated hardware. If the specific software is an integral part of the related hardware, it is treated as

property and equipment.

Asset ImpairmentAt each reporting date, property and equipment and computer software are reviewed to determinewhether there is any indication that assets have suffered an impairment loss. If there is anindication of possible impairment, the recoverable amount of any affected asset (or group of related assets) is estimated and compared with its carrying amount. If estimated recoverable

amount is lower, the carrying amount is reduced to its estimated recoverable amount, and animpairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

If an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or group of related assets) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but not in excess of theamount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or group of related assets) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediatelyin profit or loss.

Accounts Payable and Accrued ExpensesAccounts payable and accrued expenses are obligations on the basis of normal credit terms and donot bear interest.

Bank loansBank loans are recognized initially at the transaction price that is the present value of cash payableto the bank including transaction costs, if any. These are subsequently stated at amortized cost.Interest expense is recognized on the basis of effective interest method and is included in other charges on the statements of revenues and expenses.

Retirement BenefitsThe Organization has an unfunded, noncontributory, defined benefit retirement plan covering allof its regular employees. The obligation and costs of retirement benefits are actuarially computed

by a professionally qualified independent actuary using projected unit credit method. Actuarialgains and losses are charged or credited to profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

Fund BalancesThe amount included in fund balances includes accumulated excess of revenues over expensesreduced by funds returned to funding agencies/partners and other adjustments. Funds returned tofunding agencies/partners are recognized as a liability and deducted from fund balances inaccordance with specific provisions of the contract related to the funds. Fund balances may alsoinclude effect of changes in accounting policy as may be required by the transitional provisions of new accounting standards and interpretations.

RevenueRevenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to theOrganization and the revenue can be measured reliably.



- 18 -

Grants, Donations, Support and Contributions. Grants, donations, support and contributions arerecognized when received.

Mission-Related Social Enterprise Activities. Activities are recognized when revenues are received for services rendered through the social enterprise activities of CFSI, the first being the Center for Excellence in Humanitarian Service (CEHS) in Cotabato City, Mindanao, Philippines.

Interest Income. Interest income is recognized as the interest accrues.

Costs and ExpensesCosts and expenses are decreases in economic benefits during the accounting period in the form of outflows or decrease of assets or incurrence of liabilities that result in decreases in fund balance.Costs and expenses are recognized in the statement of revenues and expenses in the year these areincurred.

Operating LeaseOperating lease payments are recognized as expense in the statement of revenues and expenses ona straight-line basis over the lease term.

Foreign Currency-denominated TransactionsForeign currency-denominated transactions are recorded in Philippine Peso by applying to theforeign currency amount the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are restated using the closing exchange rate at thereporting date. Exchange differences arising on the settlement and restatement of monetary itemsat rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the year are recognized inthe statement of revenues and expenses in the year such difference arises.

ProvisionsProvisions, if any, are recognized when the Organization has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodyingeconomic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

ContingenciesContingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements. These are disclosed in thenotes to financial statements unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodyingeconomic benefits is remote. Contingent assets are not recognized in the financial statements butdisclosed in the notes to financial statements when an inflow of economic benefit is probable.

Events After the Reporting Period Post year-end events that provide additional information about the Organization’s assets and liabilities at reporting period (adjusting events) are reflected in the financial statements. Post year-end events that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements whenmaterial.

3. Significant Accounting Judgments and Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with PFRS for SMEs requires theOrganization to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at theend of the reporting period. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liabilityaffected in future years.

JudgmentsIn the process of applying the Organization’s accounting policies, management has made thefollowing judgments, which has the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in thefinancial statements.

Determination of Functional Currency. Based on the economic substance of the underlyingcircumstances relevant to the Organization, the functional currency of the Organization has beendetermined to be the Philippine peso. The Philippine peso is the currency of the primaryeconomic environment in which the Organization operates. It is the currency that mainlyinfluences the revenues and expenses.

Revenue. The Organization assesses its revenue arrangements against specific criteria in order todetermine if it is acting as principal or agent. The Organization has concluded that it is acting as

principal in all of its revenue arrangements.

Operating Lease Commitment - Organization as Lessee. The Organization has entered into a leaseagreement as a lessee (see Note 18). The Organization has determined that it does not retain all

the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the property which are leased out in an operatinglease agreement.

Estimates and AssumptionsThe key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at thereporting date, that have a significant risk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amountsof assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below. The Organization based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were

prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments however, maychange due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of the Organization.Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.

Useful Lives of Property and Equipment and Computer Software. The Organization estimates theuseful lives of property and equipment and computer software based on the period over which theassets are expected to be available for use. The estimated useful lives of these assets are reviewed at each financial year-end and updated if expectations differ from previous estimates due to

physical wear and tear, technical or commercial obsolescence and legal or other limits on the useof these assets. In addition, the estimation of the useful lives of these assets are based on thecollective assessment of industry practice, internal technical evaluation and experience withsimilar assets. It is possible, however, that future results of operations could be materially affected

by changes in estimates brought about by the changes in factors mentioned above. The amountsand timing of recorded expenses for any period would be affected by changes in these factors and circumstances.

The organization has changed the estimated useful life of the property and equipment which isdiscussed in Note 6. The carrying value of property and equipment amounted to P=11,539,704 and P=12,343,595 as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively (see Note 6). The carrying value of computer software amounted to P=427,753 and P=306,131 as at December 31, 2011 and 2010,respectively (see Note 8).

Impairment of Property and Equipment and Computer Software. The Organization’s managementconducts an impairment review of its property and equipment and computer software when certainimpairment indicators are present. This requires the Company’s management to make estimatesand assumptions of the future cash flows expected to be generated from the continued use and ultimate disposition of such assets and the appropriate discount rate to determine the recoverablevalue of the assets. Future events could cause the Organization to conclude that these assets areimpaired. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on theOrganization’s financial condition and results of operations.

Based on the assessment of the Organization, the property and equipment and computer softwaredo not have any indication of impairment as at December 31, 2011 and 2010. The carrying valuesof property and equipment amounted P=11,539,704 and P=12,343,595 as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively (see Note 6). The carrying value of computer software amounted to P=427,753and P=306,131 as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively (see Note 8).

Retirement Benefits. The determination of the liability and retirement cost is dependent on theselection of certain assumptions by management. Those assumptions used in the calculation of retirement cost are described in Note 16 to the financial statements. Retirement liability in thestatements of financial position as at December 31, 2011 and 2010 amounted to P=1,725,221 and P=1,084,935, respectively (see Note 16).

of their own funds and contributed many hours of overtime without expectation of additionalcompensation. Volunteers, including distinguished professionals and Community Volunteers,

provided their services at no cost, but great benefit to CFSI.

b. Communities - CFSI organizing and mobilization efforts in Mindanao and Luzon led tovoluntary contributions of services, facilities, and other valuable resources by communitiesaffected by armed conflict and disaster. For example, communities participating in various

projects contributed manual labor: in the “Cash for Work Pilot Project” funded by WFP in theimplementation of agriculture, infrastructure and shelter projects, and in the “Child RightsProject” funded by UNICEF in the construction of play centers for three to five years old children. Volunteered services occurred in the communities involved in the Park AvenueInitiative in Pasay City. Youth from the communities provided general assistance to the

project staff in activities, such as tutorial classes, home visits and surveys, sports fests, and informal community meetings. Some mothers of the youth and children participants alsohelped in organizing activities during children’s month.

Members of the community in Pasay City assisted in the packaging of the CFSI FamilyHygiene Kits for the victims of the typhoons which hit Luzon in late 2009. Staff of TahanangWalang Hagdanan, as well as staff and student volunteers from Deutscher Entwicklungsdienst(DED) or German Development Service, also shared their time and energy in preparing thekits.
